60 FPS videos coming to Youtube soon

YouTube announced at VidCon and then on their official blog that they’ll be supporting 48fps and 60fps video uploads soon.

YouTube has posted a handful of preview videos to show off the new tech, including the Battlefield: Hardline trailer above. YouTube will also be supporting 48fps videos, as seen in this trailer for VGHS Season 2:

While I understand the need for 60fps video uploads for gaming content, I’m less enthused about seeing high framerates in live action footage, where I find high framerates distractingly sharp.

Are there compelling reasons for high framerate footage? Please let me know in the comments. (I’m genuinely curious.)

Hat tip to vdavidtv on the Motionographer subreddit.
